2 The strangers bodies are completely covered, so that only their faces can be seen. Their skin is white, as if it were made of lime. They have yellow hair, though some of them have black. Their beards are long and yellow, and their moustaches are also yellow. Their hair is curly, with very fine stands. Their trappings and arms are all made of iron. They dress in iron and wear iron casques on their heads. Their swords are iron; their bows are iron; their shields are iron; their spears are iron. They have deer without antlers. Their deer carry them on their backs wherever they wish to go. These deer, our lord, are as tall as the roof of a house. As for their food, it is like human food. It is large and white, and not heavy. It is something like straw, but with the taste of a cornstalk, of the pith of a cornstalk. It is a little sweet, as if it were flavored with honey; it tastes of honey, it is sweet-tasting food.

3 "there was a mountain range or small mountain floating in the midst of the water, and moving here and there without touching the shore. My lord, we have never seen the like of this, although we guard the coast and are always on watch. A thing like a ball of stone comes out of its entrails: it comes out shooting sparks and raining fire. The smoke that comes out with it has a pestilent odor, like that of rotten mud.

If it is aimed against a tree, it shatters the tree into splinters. This is a most unnatural sight, as if the tree had exploded from within.

5 Aztecs vs Cortes Cortes arrived in 1519 with 508 men and 16 horses Gathered allies from the many tribes who were treated harshly by the Aztec Empire. Moctezuma (Montezuma) welcomed Cortes, unsure whether this new arrival from the East was actually Quetzalcoatl, an Aztec God destined to return that year. After entering the city, the vastly outnumbered Cortes took Montezuma hostage.

6 Quickly, Montezuma began to lose influence with his people, and was killed by the Spanish. After the death of Montezuma, the Spanish attempted to flee the city at night, but were discovered and attacked by vengeful Aztecs. 1/3 of the Spanish made it out of the city, the rest were killed or drowned during the escape, or were sacrificed.
